SpaceX has been pushing its swift entry into several stock market indexes as a condition of its historic market debut. But the S&P 500 isn’t biting. The S&P Dow Jones (the company that creates and manages indexes such as the S&P 500) is refusing to bend its rules for the space and AI company.

Another win for SpaceX’s historic IPO. The company just announced a new deal where Google will pay it $920 million per month from October 2026 through June 2029 for access to “approximately 110,000 NVIDIA GPUs, CPUs, memory, and other related components.” The deal is similar to the one SpaceX announced with Anthropic in late may for $1.25 billion per month for compute through 2029.
